Biogents AG is an innovative company on the forefront of mosquito control research. The company is composed of two complementary business units: the development and production of highly efficient mosquito traps and a contract research and development sector in the field of mosquito repellents and related products. Biogents traps are the latest innovation in mosquito control traps and incorporate paten-ted technology.

Today, Biogents AG has developed various traps that can be used for monitoring and mass trapping.

BG-ProThe newest development is the suction trap „BG-Pro“ which offers the functions of the most widely used monitoring traps (EVS, CDC, and Sentinel) in one product while provi-ding Biogents‘ patented technology, production quality, and design expertise. In studies all over the world, the BG-Pro shows at least comparable performance to the original traps.eu.biogents.com/bg-pro

Biogents AG was founded in 2002 by Dr. Geier and Dr. Rose as a spin-off from the Institute of Zoology at the University of Regensburg, Germany. Over 16 years of thorough scientific research in the areas of insect behavior and mosquito olfac-tory senses led to the development of an innovative trapping technology.

Introduction to Biogents AG

The BG-Sentinel Biogents world-renowned trap for researchers, the BG-Sentinel, was initially developed to enable researchers all over the world to monitor the yellow fever mosquito, also known as the dengue mosquito, Aedes aegypti and the Asian tiger mosquito Aedes albopictus. During its use on different continents, it became evident that the BG-Sentinel also catches other mosquito species and blood-sucking insects. This is why the trap is now used by scientists, healthcare professionals, PCOs (Pest Control Operators), and private households worldwide. Numerous independent scientific studies have been conducted with the BG-Sentinel all over the world, and it has been successfully proven to be the most effective mosquito trap on the market. For an extensi-ve list of all publications on the BG-Sentinel, visit our web-site at www.bg-sentinel.com or www.biogents.com.

BG-GATThe passive and affordable BG-GAT trap specifically lures gravid Aedes mosquitoes and is ideal suited for mass trap-ping and monitoring in large-scale programs.eu.biogents.com/bg-gat

BG-CounterThe BG-Counter upgrades your Biogents trap to a smart trap: a remote monitoring station that offers automated mosquitocounting from anywhere at any time with online softwareand analysis. www.bg-counter.com

Female mosquitoes are attracted by infused water and ovipositioning cues and enter the transparent chamber through the funnel.

Once in the chamber, mosquitoes try to escape through the translucent part where they are exposed to a sticky surface, oil, or insecticides.

The transparent chamber hinders the mosquitoes‘ ability to escape, and the black mesh net provides a barrier between mosquitoes and the infused water as well as retains dead mosquitoes without damaging them.

The BG-GAT Trap The passive BG-GAT (Gravid Aedes Trap) attracts gravid female Aedes mosquito-es with water and ovipositioning cues


BG-GAT set of 12 (Gravid Aedes Trap)

1072112x barrier net, 12x funnel, 12x transparent chamber, 12x black plastic buckets, 12x ring, 6x sticky card set (each set contains 10 pieces)

The BG-Counter upgrades your Biogents trap to a remote monitoring station that offers automated mosquito coun-ting from anywhere at any time.

The innovative smart device differentiates mosquitoes from other insects, counts them, and wirelessly transmits the re-sults to a cloud server.

Via the web application you can manage your mosquito traps and get new insights into daily activity patterns, adult den-sity indices, population dynamics, and effectiveness of your control activities.

• Automatic reports of mosquito counts • Trap management from the office• Collection of local environmental data

Detailed data for every 15 min interval allow you to better understand the local mosquito activity patterns and enable you to better and cheaper control mosquitoes. Additionally, remote monitoring saves time and manpower.

• Better treatment timing• More effective treatment• Better control for less money• Manage your trap from the office• Spend less time on trap visits and counting mosquitoes

Biogents‘ new BG-Trap Station is a robust shelter for your BG-Counter and includes parts of our new BG-Pro trap (see page 5) with a special 12 V fan.

BG-Lure 10503

The BG-Lure is an artificial human skin scent to attract tiger mosquitoes in combination with the attractive visual and phy-sical features of Biogents suction traps. The dispenser releases the scent into the surrounding area for up to five months.

BG-Mozzibait 10528

The BG-Mozzibait odor uses the same patented combination of components as the BG-Lure to imitate human skin, but it is formulated to last only three months. The granules are packed in a sachet.

Biogents Skin Odors

Biogents skin odors are the result of 16 years of academic research into the host-finding behavior of mosquitoes at the Zoological Department of the University of Regensburg, Germany.

The light and permeable dispensers guarantee an optimally timed release of the scent. The odor enhances the attrac-tiveness of the suction traps for blood-seeking insects that prefer to feed on humans, especially for tiger mosquitoes.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the most important attractants for mosquitoes. The addition of CO2 to Biogents suction traps enables you to catch a broad range of mosquitoes and other blood-sucking insects. Various sources of CO2 can be used and must be sourced separately. The BG-Booster CO2 relea-ses pure CO2 from a CO2 cylinder directly above the trap. The pressure can be adjusted to the local and seasonal condi-tions with the specialized pressure regulator. We recommend

a flow rate of about 0.5 kg of CO2 per day (marker on the dis-play of the pressure regulator) for surveillance, which equals approximately 175 ml/min. A 10 kg CO2 cylinder with this flow rate will last around 20 days. With higher flow rates up to 1.5 kg/day it is possible to further increase catch rates.These are rough estimations, because the flow rate might vary according to various parameters, e.g., temperature.

CO2 Upgrade


BG-Booster CO2 10093

To upgrade Biogents‘ suction traps to CO2 traps. Comes complete with the following:• 1x Biogents CO2 emitter nozzle• 1x CO2 tube (5 m) • 1x pressure reducing regulator with pressure gauge and

knob to adjust pressure and CO2 flow rates (for gas cylin-ders with valves W21.8 x 1/14“ to DIN 477)*

* other connections are available upon request


BG - CO2 timer 10306

Includes 1x body with a display and buttons to set up the release times, 2x connections to the CO2 tubes. 9 V battery is not included.

The Biogents CO2 timer allows you to control when CO2 is released by establishing specific start and stop times. It enables you to set up two start and end times to release CO2 each day. One BG-CO2 timer can manage several traps simultaneously, can be used with all existing traps, and runs on a 9 V battery (battery is not included in the contents; battery should last at least 6 months).
